However, a close battle was being fought for' second place between Church and Pylkas. The Wolverine merman headed his opponent until the last lap, when Pylkas forged ahead in a burst of speed to nose out Church. Both first and second places went to Great Lakes in the fancy diving competition. Carl Quaintance per- formed admirably on the spring- board to nose out his teammate, Ned Diefendorf, former Big Ten champ and member of last year's Wolver- ine swimming team. Church, Fries Place , The Maize and Blue's stellar short distance free stylers, Fries and Church, churned easily to the one and two slots in the 100-yard free style, while the third place berth went to Navy man Dowell: In the 150-yard backstroke event, Jack Munson, a Maize and Blue natator, lead throughout the entire tilt, but lost the lead in the last lap to Bluejacket contestant Everett Tur- Pulakus, Zimmerman, of Michigan, and Pylkas finished in that order in the 440-yard free style clash.

Boilermakers Surprise Ohio State, 37-36 Last-Minute Basket by Purdue Provides Upset By The Associated Press LAFAYETTE, Ind., Jan. 6-Pur- due's underdog Boilermakers over- came an early 10-3 deficit to edge out Ohio State in their Western Confer ence basketball opener tonight, 37-3. The Boilermakers treated nearly 7,000 fans to a brilliant defensive display as they handed the defending champions their first Conference set- back in two games this season. Un- able to match the tremendous height of the visitors, Purdue played a cau tious possession wgne throughout, holding the bal six minutes ,without a shot just before the half ended. Guard Charlie Haag was the main cog in the stout Purdue defense. Haag concentrated on Don Orate, the Buckeye key man, and held him pointless. Only Arnold (Stilts) Risen and Paul Huston were able to count more than a half dozen points for Ohio State. A field goal by Haag gave Purdue its first lead at 18-16, and Coach Ward Lambert's charges stalled out the remainder of the first period, which ended, Purdue 22, Ohio State 19. Ohio State regained the lead in the early stages of the second half, 23- 22, on Risen's rebounds and eventu- ally enjoyed a 27-23 margin. Purdue forged back in front at 29 to 27, how- ever, and withstood the Buckeyes' closing rush. With two minutes remaining, Jack Dugger gave Ohio State a 36-35 lead on a free throw, but Anderson con- nected from the field and Purdue held out to the end. Iowa Beats Gophers, 41-34, in Big Ten Tilt IOWA CITY, Ia., Jan. 6-(P)-The undefeated Iowa basketball team, its high-scoring attack almost com- pletely absent, opened its bid for the Western Conference championship tonight with a 41-34 victory over Minnesota's surprisingly tough Goph- ers. Rarely did the Iowa fast break go into high gear and the Hawks were far short of their 73-point average in six previous games. They collect- ed 17 points on free throws Great Lakes Defeats Iish Quintet, 59-58 GREAT LAKES, Ill., Jan. 6.- ()-Two long baskets by Mickey McGuire in the last three minutes gave the Great Lakes Bluejackets a 59-58 victory over Notre Dame's bas- ketball team here tonight. McGuire's two counters came after Johnny Dee, who tallied 25 points for the Irish, had put Great Lakes behind, 57-55. Then the former St. John's of Brooklyn star tossed in the two goals while Dee added a free throw for Notre Dame. The Bluejackets, who took a 10-4' lead early in the game, were ahead most of the way, and held a 30-27 margin at the half.

Roosevqlt today appeared to have put the blinkers on the green light he issued to sports three years ago this month. As a result of the President's ad- dress to Congress urging the enact- ment of a legislation making all 4-F's available in "whatever capa- city is best for the war effort," sports faces a dreary future.

Now $4.00 s _. , , Mountain Landis, Baseball's High Commissioner, expressed his personal rather than official point of view, urging the national game to continue in wartime. Roosevelt's latest stand, however, might spell the end of professional sports for the duration, if Congress! adopts his suggestion. In full accord with War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes, whose request last Dec. 23 that all 4-F's be re-examined for duty either in the armed forces or in war jobs, Roosevelt's wish paral- lels War Secretary Newton D. Baker's "work or fight" order of 1918 which, disrupted baseball in the waning days of World War I. Baseball Hardest Hit Only three days ago, Jan. 3, horse and dog tracks were closed at the request of Byrnes. Pro sports are studded with many. men rejected by the Army and Navy doctors for physical disabilities. Ma-£ jor League Baseball, with 281 of its 400 players in 4-F, will be hardest hit. With spring training only two months off, club owners are at a loss as to what to do.g Football, with more than half its personnel either in 4-F or Army and Navy dischargees, is not too alarmed as it has several added months in which to mark time and hope for something to happen as the year lengthens to change the picture. Golf and boxing will also be hard hit, with such link stars as Byron Nelson and Jug McSpaden, two of the leading money winners of 1944, in the 4-F group. Boxers either in 4-F or discharged from the services include Willie Pep; featherweight champion, Sugar Ray Robinson, Bobby Ruffin, Jimmy Bivins and Ken Overlin. College Athletics, supported in the main by pre-draft age athletes and Naval Trainees would be affected to some degree by the loss of 4-F's or the Universal Service Act, asked by the President.
